More Medical Mega-Breaches Thanks To Third-Party Insecurity

When you hear from a company that “the safety, security and privacy of our customers’ information is our highest priority,” you can be pretty sure that the safety, security and privacy of that data recently got compromised.

Even if the breach didn’t happen directly to that specific company. As cybersecurity experts have been preaching to organizations for years now, even if your own security is rigorous, that’s not enough. If a third party that has access to your data has weak security, you are just as insecure as it is. If it gets breached, you do too.
